(a) The Secretary of the Planning Board and the Commission shall notify the subdivider, by mail, of the final action of the Board and Commission, when involved, within ten working days of the action. The subdivider shall record the plat in the office of the County Recorder within 180 days after the date of the last approval unless the Board agrees to an extension. Within the three-mile jurisdictional limit, both the Board and the Commission must agree to an extension. If the plat is not recorded within the time limit, the plan shall be considered void. Within twenty days after the plat is recorded, the subdivider shall furnish prints and either a sepia, a photolith or the original reproducible linen of the plat to the planning staff. The number of prints needed shall be as set forth by Council.
(b) No lot or parcel of land shall be sold, bartered or in any other way transferred from the subdivision prior to the recording of the plat as required in subsection (a) hereof. In the event that any lot or parcel may unlawfully be transferred, the Municipality may bring suit against the subdivider in a court of competent jurisdiction for a sum of between one hundred dollars ($100.00) and five hundred dollars ($500.00) for each lot transferred. Any funds recovered pursuant to such civil action shall be transferred only for purposes permitted under State law.
